Answer : 1. "1"
Explanation :

Strong electrolytes have a degree of dissociation close to one, while weak electrolytes have a degree of dissociation less than one. Solvent nature: Solvents with a high dielectric constant show more dissociation. Dilution: As the solution is diluted, the degree of dissociation increases.

Q:

Polar satellites are used for high-resolution imaging of the earth’s surface because _____

632 0

  • 1
    They have better cameras
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 2
    They are very high above the surface of the earth and travel slowly to gather more information
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 3
    They are closer to the surface of the earth and can cover vast areas very quickly
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 4
    They can be launched by most countries in the world

Answer : 3. "They are closer to the surface of the earth and can cover vast areas very quickly"
Explanation :

Explanation: Since polar satellites orbit close to the surface of the earth, it is easier to click images of the planet's surface with greater detail. Their high orbital velocity enables them to view most of the surface strip-by-stip very quickly with which high-resolution images can be constructed.

Q:

Most waves used for communication purposes rely on geostationary satellites because _____

481 0

  • 1
    They cannot transmit data at long distances due to curvature of the earth
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 2
    They are reflected by the atmosphere
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 3
    They are very cheap
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 4
    It does not occupy space on the earth’s surface

Answer : 1. "They cannot transmit data at long distances due to curvature of the earth"
Explanation :

Explanation: Most communication waves cannot transmit data accurately over long distances due to the curvature of the earth. They can only do so in the line of sight. However, they are not reflected by the ionosphere like radio waves and can be relayed to a wide area using geostationary satellites.

Answer : 1. "½ times"
Explanation :

radius of its orbit will become half.

Q:

What are the conditions for gas like Carbon monoxide to obey the ideal gas laws?

474 0

  • 1
    Low temperature and low pressure
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 2
    Low temperature and high pressure
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 3
    High temperature and low pressure
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 4
    High temperature and high pressure
    Correct
    Wrong

Answer : 3. "High temperature and low pressure "
Explanation :

A real gas can behave as an ideal gas if volume of molecule is negligible and interaction between molecule is negligible. This will happen if number of molecule per unit volume is very small. This is only possible at high temperature and low pressure.

Q:

The observer hears a sound from the source which is moving away from the observer who is stationary. Determine the frequency of the sound

504 0

  • 1
    It is halved
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 2
    It remains the same
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 3
    It reaches infinity
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 4
    It gets doubled
    Correct
    Wrong
  • Show AnswerHide Answer

Answer : 1. "It is halved"
Explanation :

If the observer is moving away from the source ((Figure)), the observed frequency can be found: λs=vTo−voTovTs=(v−vo)Tov(1fs)=(v−vo)(1fo)fo=fs(v−vov).


Q:

What does an electric dipole experience when it is kept in the non-uniform electric field?

454 0

  • 1
    Only a force
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 2
    Only torque
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 3
    Force and torque both
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 4
    Neither force nor torque
    Correct
    Wrong
  • Show AnswerHide Answer
  • Workspace

Answer : 3. "Force and torque both"
Explanation :

An electric dipole always experiences a torque when placed in uniform as well as non-uniform electric field. But in non-uniform electric field, dipole will also experience net force of attraction. So the electric dipole in non-uniform electric field experiences both torque and force.


Q:

The capacity of parallel plate condenser is dependent on the

414 0

  • 1
    The separation between the plates
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 2
    The metal used for the construction
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 3
    The thickness of the plate
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 4
    The potential applied across the plates
    Correct
    Wrong
  • Show AnswerHide Answer
  • Workspace

Answer : 2. "The metal used for the construction"
Explanation :

Therefore, the capacity of a parallel plate capacitor directly depends on the relative permittivity of dielectric material, the permittivity of space, the area of plates, and is inversely dependent on the separation between the plates.
